Interference Is
Lessened by New
Receiving Circuit
► * -■* &
Washington Radio Corpora
tion Announces Perfection
of Outfit Which Will
* Not “Retaliate."’
Perfection of regenerative radio
receiving circuits which will not "re
radiate" and cause the worst form of
radio interference is announced by
Bowden Washington, chief engineer
of the Cutting & Waehington Radio
corporation of Minneapolis.
‘‘For a long time It has been evl
' ' fcent that ‘transmitting regenerative
receiving sets which threw waves
into the air and cause squeals and
catcalls in neighboring sets are a men
ace to the future of radio, and yet
Is so vital in increasing volume,
range and selectivity could not be
the principle of Tegeneration which
Abandoned,” said Washington.
‘'Bxperlmrnta have resulted In the
perfection of regenerative circuits
which retain this volume, range and
selectivity, but do not transmit or re
radiate.
“The first stage of the Teledyne
circuit operates in the following man
ner,” said Washington.
"When a resonant circuit, consist
ing of an inductance and a capacity
In parallel Is placed in series with
the plate circuit of a vacuum tube
the grid circuit of which is also re
sonated to the same frequency, the
resonant plate circuit will produce
oscillations and somewhat off this
resonant point, ‘negative resistance,’
or regenerative. If this circuit is
coupled with the plate circuit with
sufficiently close coupling the same
phenomena will occur. If, however,
the coupling Is at a certain critical
value regeneration can be produced
without possibility of oscillation. This
latter value is that used In the
Teledyne.
“The anteqna circuit consists or tne
usual inductance but of two value#,
tuned by a series condenser, which,
by the way, operates a cam switch
choosing either of these inductance
values over the two available 180-de
gree scales, with the grid filament
imput leads across this Inductance.
“The plat# circuit of the first stage
is coupled, at the critical value men
^'oned heretofore ^o the grid indue
',^r»ce of the detector, which latter la
tuned by the usual variable condens
er. The adjustment of this condenser
resonates the detector grid circuit
and at the same time regenerates the
radio frequency amplifier, thereby In
creasing its response by lowering the
antenna.
“The antenna Inductance which ts
also the grid Inductance of the radio
frequency amplifier, la carefully

tube which can he over regenerated

from getting into the antenna circuit.

Bench Parole Law Builds Character
and Is Economy, Court Officers Say
Records Here Show Only Four
of 90 Given Another Chance
Were Rearrested in
13 Months.
In Nebraska today 134 men, guilty
of crimes In Douglas county, are at
liberty and working, literally to keep
out of the penitentiary.
They are beneficiaries of the bench
parole law. This law says to the de
fendant:
i'Vou have committed a crime; you
admit it; but you are young, this is
your first offense, and we are going
to give you a chance. Go, get to
work, be on the level. We'll watch
you for two years and If you make
good you are free. If at any time
during that period you commit a
crime, associate with bad company,
frequent places of evil or do anything
else you shouldn't do you will be
forthwith sentenced to the peniten
tlary.”
A youth signs his father's name to
a check. Jt is forgefr. Shall h» be
tried and sentenced to 20 years in the
penitentiary?
A young man takes an automobile
and goes for a joy ride. Shall he be
tried, branded as a felon and sent to
the state reformatory?
Most of the men and women paroled
from the bench before sentence is
pranounced are guilty of only lesser
crimes.
The law provides that the judge
Moms 9 (fSnen
canot parole persons charged with
murder, treason, rape, arson, bur
glary from a dwelling In the night
time, robbery or larceny of the per
son.
This parole from the bench must
not be confused with the paroles
granted by the state board to prison
ers In the penitentiary.
"The parole from the bench," said
former County Attorney Abel V.
fcfhotwell, "saves the defendant from
the stigma of being a convict. He re
tains his citizenship and self respect,
and in the majority of cases he makes
good."
All the district Judges believe the
law is a good one.

Plenty of Thrills
in “Missing Men”
Phoney Marquis ^alks Right
Into Murder Charge l nder
Assumed Identity.
■'MISSING MEN." by Gaaton I.»roui Th«
Macauiey company. New Yorlt city.
Here, indeed, is a thriller; a de
tective story that will make your hair
stand on end.
With the aid of surgery, Chiri Bibi
assumes the character of the mar
quis de Touchais. Ilin five pals are
reported drowned at sea. The sinking
of their ship severs the last link that
connected him with the life of th#
past. He even feels the impulse to be
done with crime.
But he does not know the marquis
was wanted for murder and that the
five "missing men" were lying In
wait for him.
There are plenty of thrills and sur
prises In this book for the lover of
detective stories—and there's a little
love thrown In.

btnch, where merry had saved them
from the penitentiary, and making
good In a remarkable manner,” said
District Judge Charles A. Boss.
One Is la-ading Physician.
A youth was arrested for forgery.
He was a medical student, came of
good family and had never been in
trouble before. He was paroled by the
judge, went back to his studies, grad
uated with honors and today is a
leading physician in a largd' western
city.
A man was charged with breaking
and entering. He h«d a wife and two
children. He pleaded for mercy. His
employer seconded his plea. He was
paroled for two years, went bark to
his Job, rose in the service until to
day he is an officer of the company.
Practically all Douglas county men
are paroled to Moses P. O'Brien, adult
probation officer, appointed annually
by the court at a salary of *1,500 per
year.
Report Each .iionin.
He keeps in touch with them and
gets reports from each one at least
once a month on blanks printed for
the purposes. The probationer re
ports the number of days he worked
during the month, reasons for time
lost, amount of money earned, amount
expended and what for, together with
the name and address of employer and
kind of employment.
When a man is paroled, O'Brien
takes a full physical description of
him. If he has no work, the proba
tion officer helps him to get it. When
a probationer fails to make his
monthly report the officer looks him
up. If he has violated the parole, this
fact is reported to the judge, the
parole is revoked and officers ordered
to arrest the probationer.
Only Two Ixist.
At present, out of 160 on the pro
bation list only two have disappeared
without being apprehended, O’Brien
say*.
To 24 of them, permission has been
granted to leave the state. These are
now working as follows: two in Chi
cago, two in St. Paul, two In Kansas
City, two in Missouri Valley. Ia., an i
